Needed iTunes Improvements

With the release of QuickTime 6 and the hot new audio format AAC, an iTunes update is inevitable. I'd like to see suggestions of updates you'd like to see made to iTunes.

I'd like to be able to drag a folder containing MP3's (or AAC's) and drop it onto the playlist window creating a new playlist containing the enclosed files automatically. As it is I am forced to create a new playlist, name the playlist then place the files into my newly created playlist. This would sure save me alot of hassle.

I'd like to see a built-in music editor that can edit mp3s and AIFFs and mp4s and AACs, etc. with lots of special effects and such

I would like to see a button on the delete comfirmation dialog that would let me trash the mp3 file on the HD as well as removing it from the Library. It can't be all that hard to do.

iTunes will delete the mp3 file from your HD if the mp3 resides within the iTunes music folder. You can designate this folder in iTunes's preferences. This will only work if you are deleting the mp3 from the library. Deleting it from a playlist will only remove the mp3 from THAT playlist.

Downloading tip: Download your mp3's into a folder inside of your designated iTunes folder. That way when you listen to the newly downloaded mp3 and decide it sucks or has a defect, you can delete it from within iTunes without having to go locate it on your hard drive. Make sense?

I will have to take another look at the prefs then, as I don't remember seeing this before.

I am hoping for easier to use skinning. I have tried the hacks for the interface but they are somewhat hard to use.

Skins would be very kewl!

I would also like to be able to assign visuals to each song in much the same way you can assign equalizer levels.
